Abstract

Titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$), which is one of the most basic materials in our daily life, plays a key role for environment purification. We synthesized $TiO_2$ nanoparticles by the hydrolysis reactions of titanium tetraisopropoxide using $HNO_3$ as a peptizing agent or $CH_3COOH$ as a chelating agent in the sol-gel method. The powder consisted of a rod shape or a spherical shape according to the concentration and kind of acid. The physical properties of $TiO_2$ nanoparticles were investigated with X-ray diffraction, SEM, BET analysis, and UV-Vis spectrophotometer.
